. The letter was sent Thursday to Bakker’s office and cited a Feb. 12 episode of his show that claimed a Silver Solution sold on his website would be a preventative against the coronavirus.Bakker was previously convicted of fraud and served time in federal prison related to his activities connected to his popular Club show, a religious version of mainstream talk shows featuring Jim and wife Tammy Faye Bakker.

“Let’s say it hasn’t been tested on this strain of the coronavirus, but it’s been rested on other strains of the coronavirus and has been able to eliminate it within 12 hours,” she replied. “The World Heath Organization has noted that there is no specific medicine to prevent or treat this disease,” Landau said in her letter to Bakker. “Therefore, any representation on the Jim Bakker Show that its Silver Solution products are effective at combating and/or treating the 2019 novel coronavirus violates New York law.”

Landau also said a disclaimer had to be listed on the website denying any claims on its efficacy. “These statement have not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration. This product is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease,” the disclaimer reads.Watch an segment from Bakker’s new show above.

Okay awesome can we also go after all these grifters who are selling the cure for other things like depression, cancer, and shit like that? Silver water ain't curing shit.

TimMillerHorror JimBakkerShow is a con man...a convicted felon...a grifting, lying, Pharisee. If he had even an ounce of common sense and dignity he would have retired from public life when he got out of prison.
